* [[Afraid of Needles]]: Seems a common fear among the heroes, if their dialogue upon being admitted to the Sanatorium is any indication.
* [[Alien Invasion]]: The monsters in the Farmstead are thralls of an abomination from space, sleeping inside a gemstone-comet. This is a reference to Lovecraft’s ''[[The Colour Out of Space]]''.
* [[All of the Other Reindeer]]: Initially, Abomination could not be in a party with any of the church-affiliated classes; Crusader, Flagellant, Leper, and Vestal had some taboo against cooperating with lycanthropes. This was kind of odd, seeing as they were okay with seedy heroes like Grave Robber and Highwayman, and this was eliminated with the "Colour of Madness" DLC.
* [[Amazon Brigade]]: It's actually pretty easy to build a competent party out of the female characters; several official Party Combos have a combination of the Antiquarian, the Arbalest, the Grave Robber, the Hellion, the Plague Doctor, and the Vestal.
* [[Apocalyptic Log]]: Some of the rare finds in dungeons are diaries of adventurers from the Ancestor's days.
* [[Artistic License Medicine]]: The Leper is supposed to be, as his name implies, suffering from leprosy, a disease that causes, among other things, atrophy of muscles, meaning lepers tend to be weak. However, this guy is very strong. While he’s clumsy and doesn’t hit as often as you’d like, when he ''does'' hit, he hits ''hard''.
* [[Ascended Meme]]: Wayne June (the voice of the narrator/Ancestor) recorded a set of ''Darkest Dungeon''-themed [http://www.darkestdungeon.com/ancestral-bestowment/ voice notifications] for streamers. It includes some [[Shout-Out]]s to ''[[Undertale]]'', ''[[Dark Souls]]'' and "Truly, this is the Dankest Dungeon."
* [[Announcer Chatter]]: The Ancestor provides commentary on battles, encounters and town events, but he doesn't really "chatter": he makes ominous, portentous comments about victory and/or doom.
